Gas supply requirements

WARNING

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Important: Cooktop must be connected to a regulated gas supply.

A.This installation must conform with

local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installations must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 — latest edition or CANI — B149.1 or 2*.

Explosion Hazard

Use a new AGA or CSA approved gas supply line.

Install a shut-off valve. Securely tighten all gas

connections. If connected to LP, have a

qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" water column.

Examples of a qualified person include licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire .

B.Input ratings shown on the

model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For elevations above 2,000 feet (610 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet (305 m) above sea level.

C.The cooktop is equipped for use

with NATURAL gas. It is design-certified by International Approval Services (I.A.S.) for NATURAL and L.P. gases with appropriate conversion.The model/serial rating plate, located on the underside of the burner box, has information on the type of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier.

8501 East Pleasant Valley Rd. Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575

Electrical requirements

D.Provide a gas supply line of 3/4"

rigid pipe to the cooktop location. A smaller size pipe on long runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds, suitable for use with L.P.gas, must be used.With L.P. gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2" minimum. L.P. gas suppliers usually determine the size and materials used on the system.

L.P. Gas:

No attempt shall be made to convert the cooktop from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.To convert to L.P. gas, use L.P. gas conversion kit part no.8284673.The parts for this kit are in the literature package supplied with cooktop.

E.If local codes permit, use a flexible

stainless steel tubing gas connector, design-certified by AGA or CSA International, to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas supply line. 5/8" diameter line is recommended. Do Not kink or damage the flexible connector when moving the cooktop.The pressure regulator has 1/2" female pipe threads.You will need to determine the fittings required, depending on the size of your gas supply line, flexible metal connector and shutoff valve.

F.The supply line shall be equipped

with an approved shutoff valve.This valve should be located in the same room as the cooktop and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do Not block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.

G.If rigid pipe

is used as a gas supply line, a combination of pipe fittings must be used to obtain an in-line connection to the cooktop.All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so cooktop will be level and in line.

H.The regulator must be checked at a

minimum 1-inch (2.5 cm) water column above the set pressure.The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for operation and checking the regulator setting:

NATURAL GAS: Set pressure 5 inches (12.7 cm) W.C. Supply pressure 7-14 inches (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) W.C. maximum.

L.P. GAS: Minimum pressure 10 inches (25.4 cm) W.C. Supply pressure 14 inches (35.5 cm) W.C.

I.Line pressure testing:

Testing above 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) or 14 inches (35.5 cm) W.C. (gauge)

The cooktop and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).

Testing below 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) or 14 inches (35.5 cm) W.C. (gauge) or lower

The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Failure to follow these

instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

WARNING

A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere, fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper ground and polarity are necessary. In addition to checking that the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded, the outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician to see if it is wired with correct polarity. A wiring diagram is provided on the last page of these instructions.

Important: This cooktop is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.

This appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current CSA standard C22.1. Canadian Electrical Code Part 1*.

Recommended ground method

For your personal safety, this cooktop must be grounded.This cooktop is equipped with a 3-prong ground plug.To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition** or Canadian Electrical Code (CSA)* — and local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly polarized and grounded, 3-prong outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate.
